A student entering the DVM/MSc or MSc program in the SVM will be supervised by a Supervisory Committee. The student in consultation with the relevant chair of department will select an MSc advisor, and all three will then select the members of the Supervisory Committee. The Supervisory Committee will be comprised of the student’s MSc advisor as chair and two additional members, who may be co-opted from the SVM or other schools within SGU. One member may be selected from an institution other than SGU. The Supervisory Committee will be approved by the dean of the SGS. The duties of the Supervisory Committee and the chair are outlined in the SGS guidelines.
